Hello world,
We've screwed up.
The Impatient Theatre Co. is the producer of the annual Toronto International Improv Festival, which takes place every August in Toronto. This year, our festival will take place Aug. 13-19. Due to the rapid growth of our company and the low staff volume on hand at the Impatient Theatre Co., we have not had adequate resources (i.e., time and people) to devote to the promotion of this year's festival and its submission process.
For 2007, we had pushed our submissions deadline back to mid-April from where it was in previous years, mid-May. Due to the inability on our part to promote our submission process over the past few months, with a few minor exceptions, we are extending our current deadline to Friday, May 18 at 5 p.m., effective immediately.
You may have noticed that our website has not yet been updated for the 2007 festival. This will be changing in the next week as we have put new measures in place (i.e., more people) at our company to offset the amount of work we have to do. We will be more responsive to your emails, more receptive to your calls (416-238-7337), and savvier with our promotional efforts and efforts to get you involved with our festival, as a performer, student, or volunteer.
Within the week, the festival website (http://www.torontoimprovfest.com/) will feature an online submission form, a downloadable Submissions Guide, and news about our status and updates and goings on at the festival office.
I thank you personally for being patient with the growing pains of Impatient Theatre Co. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with your submissions.
Thank you.
Regards,
Kevin.
